#86 for you and your 62!

Hope you don't mind the repost but this deserves to be full scale full time.

I posted these before but here it is again if people were interested who didn’t see. Bass is wonderful, it is a capped board, prob one of the first wave of them. All original, not even a fret dress, no covers or tags or mutes unfortunately, but a period correct case.

 

[basses55]

‘62 Jaco style.

[narud]

‘62 Jaco style.

which pictures would you say are a more accurate depiction of the color in person? the brighter over exposed yellow or the more subtle color of the pics of it laying on the carpet.

So this one is (or was?) yours?

Precision Bass [Objekt #3781] [Baujahr 1959] | A-1193

And just sold. I will miss it but it has a good home. It was on consignment there (great shop and people).

I guess it is now proven that dadburst and tort sound better and are actually easier on your back. This is beyond science.

It would be hard to top those 3 for a collection of JB's!
Very nice!
